Forget your puffed up acronyms and endless meetings, simply ban burning in the region along with smoke belching vehicles in cities. Big fines/jail time for perps. I cannot believe that in 2024 bleedin archaic two stroke tuk-tuks and filthy sawngthaews are still allowed to operate, and Thailand is relatively rich and advanced compared to those other places. Move on!

I thought Thailand had "banned" burning a few years ago

Someone should compare the cost of all the committees and junkets against the actual reduction of pollutants versus previous years. 
 

Many air quality monitoring stations are available. What is not available is any enforcement.
 

Then people can judge the value of this strategy.

Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar have teamed up to launch the Clear Sky Strategy for 2024 to 2030, an effort to tackle the severe air pollution affecting Southeast Asia.

I'll wait for the 2025 burning season and see if it's real

Minister Maris highlighted the urgent need for Southeast Asia to reduce pollution from industries, vehicles, agriculture, and forest fires,

Poor man, maybe he believes his own words.🤔

The strategy outlines a framework under the acronym “CLEAR,” which stands for Continued Commitment, Leveraging Mechanisms, Experience Sharing, Air Quality Networks, and Response.

Otherwise known as CCLMESAQMR🙄
